Baby bloomers are the people who came back and survived both of the World Wars and the Cold War. Once they came back, a lot of marriages started taking place and babies were born. They caused economic growth because veterans were able to use the GI bill to their advantage and go to college to get a better job, and were able to financially support their family.

I hope this answer helped you! If you have any further questions or concerns, feel free to ask! :)
